| | How do I use driver signing? I'm trying to install the driver for an old electronic piano. Windows couldn't install the driver automatically, so I inserted the driver disc. But there are just a few .drv and .sys files that I can't open. I placed them in windows/system32/drivers which didn't help. In the manual it says: 1. For XP(no guide for Vista/7) go to control panel->system->hardware and click driver signing button. Click the ignore button on the dialog box, then click ok. 2. Place the CD-ROM 3. Connect the instrument to the computer and turn it on. 4. This displays found new hardware wizard. Select install the software automatically. (recommended) So I looked for the driver signing button all over the control panel to no avail. Does it even exist in windows 7? |

Isuspect the piano driver is not. The are some convouted workarounds but even then it is doubtful Sorry I cant help Ken J+ |
